If coalition_unwilling is "ashamed (that he or she) once called myself a Democrat," why are they posting on Democratic Underground? Such types of postings are made to suppress voter turnout.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon May 21, 2012, 10:42 AM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I'm not feeling suppressed as I see it more of a personal view. He's not encouraging anyone to not vote but telling us how he feels. As to the feelings, nothing wrong with feeling ashamed at times.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: DU has long been open to "liberals" in general, including Greens/Democratic Socialists so long as they do not advocate 3rd Party. Heck, back in the day there were a few, out moderate GOPers who posted here.
